Poses refer to the various unique stances or gestures that the in-game classes showcase outside general gameplay but can be found within the game files, often as a basis for marketing artwork. These often consist of the numerous stances that the individual classes assume on the class-selection screen, or the various pictures of in-game models gesturing on the various update pages of the TF2 Official Website.
